Not so much carving skills as sail handling. Windsurfing a skateboard really helps you to develop an exact sail handling since the apparent wind will be so much larger comparatively speaking and since you can't move your feet a whole lot.

Loads of us used to do this a lot, on a school playground at night (Shoebury).
Someone turned up on a moped, and we did speed trials, 20mph is easily possible.
Its brilliant for learning duck gybes, front to sail, switch stance and heli tacks.
We used 5m sails typically.
And very hard wheels help at lot.
Use the most disposable boom you can acquire, because the grip will be shredded quickly.
Have fun!
